71 m of the Spasskaya Tower, 21 mm on your shelf
Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
- A tall, narrow tower
The tower prints tall and narrow next to the buildings around it, so its upper stages are the thinnest part. Print slowly with good cooling, and 0.12 to 0.16 mm layers keep the upper edges crisp.
- Small parts near the top
The smallest geometry sits high on the model, where layers cool slowest. A larger print, or Full detail with a fine nozzle, keeps it separate from the surfaces behind it.
- One piece with the ground
The Spasskaya Tower is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. The Spasskaya Tower takes the building color.
- File format
You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
About the Spasskaya Tower
Also called the Saviour Tower, the Spasskaya Tower stands as the principal tower on the Moscow Kremlin's eastern wall and looks out over Red Square. Grand Prince Ivan III the Great ordered it built, and the Italian architect Pietro Antonio Solari did the work in 1491. Its first name, Frolovskaya, came from the Church of Frol and Lavr inside the Kremlin, a building that has since gone.
Its present name derives from the icon of Spas Nerukotvorny, the Saviour Not Made by Hands, an icon hung in 1658 above the gates on the inner wall and taken down in 1917. In 1508 a wooden drawbridge linked the tower to a guardhouse beyond the Aleviz Ditch and its moat, and an arched stone bridge later took its place. In 1624–1625 it became the first Kremlin tower to receive a hipped roof, the work of Bazhen Ogurtsov and Christopher Galloway, and its clock, known as the Kremlin chimes, officially designates Moscow Time.
Joseph Stalin had the two-headed eagle atop the tower taken down in 1936 and a red star put in its place; with the star the tower reaches 71 meters. The clock face is 6 meters (20 ft) across. The gate was once used to greet foreign dignitaries and in formal ceremonies and processions on Red Square, and it closed to all traffic in 1999. It is opened for state occasions such as inauguration-day motorcades, Victory Day parades and the New Year's tree, and since 2016 the Kremlin Regiment has mounted a guard ceremony there every hour.
